Parents can influence

does watch programs designed for
adults. The only criterion
demanded is — does it interest
him?
By watching and considering
what our children watch, we can
penetrate more surely into their
worlds and mediate their entry
into ours. Let them know when
your standards differ from what
is being shown.
Dr. Thomas suggests that
parents can influence the
program content mansstelevision
stations now offer.
' "Local stations and networks
are more sensitive than you may
think, particularly at this time."
Dr, Thomas concludes "Soon
we will have a generation of
parents who have never known a
world without television. How
they will respond to their
children's viewing habits remains
to be seen; hopefully more
sensibly than we have."
Parental concern over the
effect of television on children is
misplaced and naive, according to
Dr. Alan Thomas, writing in the
current issue of "Transition", a
quarterly publication of the
Vanier Institute of the Family.
Dr. Thomas says two things
about television have remained
constant: the prevalence of
parental concern and "the brute
fact of the amount of time
children spend watching
television.
"Families are oral units, they
live by talk. So do TV and radio.
We all know, or can know very
easily, what programs our
children watch and we can talk
about them if we really want to.
However, if we really mean to
take this experience seriously, We
had better listen and observe as
well."
Some things are apparent.
There is nothing like the sharp
division between the child s
world and the adult world that
exists in other forms of the child's
experience. The child can and
Yesterday is but today's memory

A proposal taken by a
delegation from the Huron
County Board of Education to a
4'
meeting with more than 100
McKillop ratepayers recently
resulted in no decision, it was
learned Monday evening in
Clinton.
Chairman John Levis, Clinton,
told the board that after a group
of McKillop ratepayers had urged
the board of education to up-date
educational facilities in that
township, a study of the situation
was made. Decision was reached
that the only feasible solution
would be to replace six one-room
schools in McKillop with an
addition at Seaforth Public
• School.
The proposal included plans to
house the bulk of McKillop
students in the enlarged Seaforth
school and to transport students
in the northern part of McKillop
to Walton.
Director of education John C.
Cochrane explained that if a
central school was constructed in
McKillop, the board would "just
be building classrooms and not
improving the education level for
McKillop students".
He said the student population
in McKillop does not warrant the
construction of a school large
enough to include a library, etc. If
an addition was built at Seaforth,
the students would have the
benefit of a library, a science
room, a special education room
and an art room.
Cochrane told the board that
the Ontario Department of
• Education would entirely finance
an addition at Seaforth planned
by the board as a senior wing, but
actually enlarging the Seaforth
building to accommodate most of
the McKillop students.
Garnet Hicks, Exeter, who
attended the meeting with the
McKillop ratepayers, said there
were "some fairly heated remarks
made" by citizens there.
Lavis said some approved the
proposal to build on to the
Seaforth school, some wanted a
central school in McKillop while
still others preferred to keep the
present system of one-room
schools. '
"We don't know what they
want and they don't know
either," said Lavis, who noted
that a vote was not taken among
the McKillop taxpayers in order
to avoid "hard feelings" between
neighbors and friends.
Dan Murphy, Goderich, stated
that in his opinion a vote was
really not all that was necessary.
He cited a case in Colborne
Township where the ratepayers
there voted down a proposal
made by the board and the board
went right ahead with its own
plans.
John Henderson, MeKillop,
noted that present enrollment in
McKillop is 182 students. He
claimed that a projection showing
enrollment in five years at 147 is
unreal.
"Projected figures are always
Wrong," said Henderson who
Stated that he was in favor of
leaving things as they are in
McKillop for at least one year.
